Can't choose directory for netlist files

JMinCV

When netlisting from Design Entry CIS for the PCB editor, the dialog box is drawn with the right side of the box including the browse button for the Netlist Files Directory obscured.  It's a major painto have to type an absolute path into the box which not coincidentally doesn't show the whole path.   Resizing the window does not cure the issue, nor does changing tabs to try to force the window to redraw.  Another consequence is that the radio button label for Place Change Components Never is obscured in the same manner.

This is a new behavior since installing 16.6 on Win7 64 bit. 

 Is this a known problem?

The screenshot below shows the result after dragging the window wider.

    See if this changes how it works.

    Right click on your capture icon and "run as an administrator" when launching capture.

    No joy when running as administrator. The behavior is the same.

    You have the "Windows 7 Font problem", see this forum entry: /forums/p/20673/1305080.aspx#1305080 the last post has a link to the Microsoft solution.
